What's the best way to read description of bot when run slash commands?

[ghost]

So, I have a custom function in a Bot client class (not on_message). It runs slash commands every 30 minutes. The bot respons as shown in picture

async for _ in c.slash_commands(query="ping"):
   if _.name == "ping":
       print(f"{self.color.good} pinge")
       await _()

How to store response in variable. Bot can return either normal message or embed
I don't think it's doable simply. I think i need to place a code in on_message, filter on_message messages by channel and check if bot replied to this particular account

You can use bot.wait_for I presume, check if the referenced message's author is your bot, in that case, the bot is replying to your command. You can then filter for embeds from the message object you get through

if message.embeds:
    embed = message.embeds[0]
    title, description = embed.title, embed.description
else:
    content = message.content

discord.Message docs. discord.Message.reference to check if the message is a reply, and discord.Message.embeds to get a list of embeds.

@dolfies I couldn't find anything describing what happens when the slash command is awaited in the docs, ie, the docs don't describe what happens when you await a slash command, thanks :)

I think I get it how to do it.

1. Filter on_message messages by channels
2. Check if message is from that bot
3. Check if message is replied to my account/userid
   If yes then your code

I am currently not able to use laptop so I can't try now. But will try and update/mark your answer once I code and test it
